the Decentralization Cohort
during Mar-Jun 2024We are glad to announce the two selected projects that will be joining us for this second BOB (Build On Bitcoin) residency cohort here IRL in Bangkok.
Cohort 2 Residents work on FOSS projects to ultimately ensure network decentralization. Under the Residency Program, they will engage in more direct collaboration and user education. We’re extremely excited to facilitate the meeting of these committed minds.
